Gunnera Update.

Fascinating plant, I bet the recent rain has helped it too :)

thats looking intresting holly

we havnt had much rain gee... only a small shower yesterday..... none today...
did you see this when you came down..... Val...

yes I did but its grown a lot since, are you having slow problems with GOY, seems to be taking ages to get from page to page, its driving me nuts its so slow,

yes me to val.... it was like that yesterday as well.... isnt it annoying... when theres so much to look at.....

I.m glad to hear its the same for you, I didn't think it was my computer as its quite new, maybe have to tell Ajay/Peter, will see if any one else is having problems, its a damn pain,

yes will have to see how it goes... this is the only site which goes slow......

they said they speeded it up the other week, when they closed it down for a couple of hours on two occasions

Wonderful blog Holly. Your Gunnera is looking great.
I'm having slow problems too. I thought it was my ancient computer but I guess not. :o)

Maybe more people on it again now... perhaps needs doing again.. : O )

THanks Gilli... no not your computer.... just the site ...lol...

now my computer has speeded up again, how strange

mine has to...lol... the site must have heard what we said..... : O )))

I hope so, Lol

I'm jealous, I lost my Gunnera in the cold last winter but I've bought a new one.

excellent Holly - a real beauty - love the updates on this :):):)

This looks so healthy and vigorous, Holly. Nice to see it producing some flower too :)
